Texas Medicare Outliers

In Texas, 163 health care providers billed Medicare for procedures at a per-patient rate that far exceeded national averages within their medical specialty in 2012.

These charts show how each top-rated Texas provider compared to all other providers nationwide. In each chart, the majority of providers lie within a typical range, with a Texas provider leading the 20 top-rated national providers. That means the Texas provider billed Medicare for significantly more procedures per patient than their peers in that specialty.

Sometimes the Texas top-rate provider has company at the top of the range — other outliers in the nation that are close in rate. Sometimes the Texas provider is close to the typical range for most providers. In other cases, Texas providers stand alone, far beyond the national average and outside the typical range of their peers.
